1Prepare the wonton filling by mixing all ingredients in a bowl.
2Mix the filling thoroughly and build up the texture by picking it up and throwing it into the bowl a few times.
3Add a teaspoon of filling to each wonton wrapper, wet the edges, and fold to create a triangle shape. Press to seal and set aside.
4Finely slice one shallot and ten cloves of garlic for the chilli crisp.
5Heat the oil, add shallots, fry until golden, and remove. Repeat with garlic and blanched peanuts, setting aside the crunchy ingredients.
6In the same oil, add ginger, garlic, star anise, cinnamon stick, coriander seed, and bay leaves. Infuse on medium heat for about 15 minutes, then strain and remove the aromatics.
7In a metal bowl, mix gochugaru, Sichuan peppercorn powder, chilli flakes, sugar, salt, MSG, and black vinegar.
8Heat the infused oil to 375°F. Carefully add it, ladle by ladle, to the seasonings, stirring continuously. Add the crunchy ingredients and store in a jar.
9Add wontons to simmering water and cook for 4-5 minutes.
10Place chilli crisp, black vinegar, and cooked wontons in a bowl. Top with more chilli oil, sesame seeds, and spring onions.
